When using Visual Studio namespaces as directory names in conjunction with Sub Version I came across the following error when i was trying to copy some files – this also happens when trying to delete or move.

This happens when the NTFS maximum path length of 255 characters is exceeded. To resolve this problem you can map a network drive to the path you want to copy/move to, or delete by running the following dos command .
